Google Goes to the Goats

By NunoXEI • May 7th, 2009 • Category: Blog

Why hire a guy on a lawnmower when you can rent 200 goats to do the same job? I’d have to imagine going the gas-powered lawn mower route would b the cheaper option–but for Google, making a statement about the environment goes side by side with their company slogan of “Do no Evil”.

Google’s Mountain View headquarters is taking a low-carbon approach this spring by swarming their fields with a weed-chewing and bio-fertalizing alternative to lawn care. These rented goats come from California Grazing, where they drop them off for a week to do the dirty work of… well be a goat.

Hey, I have to respect their eagerness to be green friendly. Google just does not kid around! (Get it? “kid” around?… baby goat…? no…? Ya that was lamb lame.)
